Data-Intensive Computing and AI/ML Applications at Scale

With Aurora to enter production in the coming months, a new era of computing will dawn at Argonne. Not only is Aurora one of the world's largest supercomputers, it is also designed to support three overlapping activities -- traditional high-performance computing, data-intensive problems, and large-scale AI/ML applications. This meeting will bring together researchers working primarily on the last two topics. The aim is to understand the current scope of activities, the nature of hardware/software challenges going forward, and how to overcome them via collaborative approaches. Additionally, the meeting will also be useful in capturing the status of the current software suite, data-intensive application support services, and what may be required by applications in the future.
